AMERICAN DIRT
Flatiron Books
Jeanine Cummins
Lydia Quixano Pérez lives in Acapulco, Mexico. She runs a bookstore. She has a son, Luca, the love of her life, and a wonderful husband who is a journalist. And while there are issues in the city because of the drug cartels, her life is comfortable.
She stocks her bookstore with some of her favorite books even though she knows they may not sell. One day, unbeknownst to her, a jefe of the newest drug cartel buys some of these books. When her husband publishes his tell-all book, their life will not be the same.
Noted as the "Grapes of Wrath" for our times, we follow the journey of the flight of this family to the North and what it means when you're running to something.
Already being hailed as "a new American classic," Jeanine Cummins's American Dirt is a rare exploration into the inner hearts of people willing to sacrifice everything for a glimmer of hope.
